Before you format I would recommend you create another Admin profile
account.
It could be an issue where your profile is corrupted.
Installing it on another profile and it works will conclude that it was a
corrupted profile issue.
I hope this helps! If you have additional questions on this topic, please
respond back to this posting.

| Unfortunately, none of your suggestions have worked. What is the
significance of creating another Admin user profile?
|
| I guess the only option left is format C and re-install - I don't really
want to go down this route because it will take a whole day.
|
| Thanks for your help anyway!
